Paul George Is Revving Up a Hot Wheels x Nike PG 6 Collaboration
Flaming hot Swooshes and bold gradients land on this racing-meets-hoops colorway.
Outside of life on the basketball court, Paul George is known to dabble into various hobbies such as golfing, spending time in the great outdoors fishing as well as growing his already impressive car collection. In relation to the latter, George has always had an affinity for automobiles, and so Nike is honoring this by fashioning him a playful Hot Wheels x Nike PG 6 collaboration.
The nostalgic toy car brand has remixed his signature basketball model with a plethora of details. A majority of the synthetic upper has been formatted with a bold blue-to-red gradient effect, which likely reflects the Hot Wheels logo. Reversed Swooshes on the lateral panels and his number 13 on the medial side have been modified with fiery allure, and the entire throat has been covered in black and white checkerboard patterns to call out the final lap flag in a race. Tongues split their branding between the Clippers guard’s logo on the right shoe and the Hot Wheels insignia on the left. And to top everything off, the insoles have been styled with red flames and co-branded hits.
No release date has been announced just yet, but it’s likely that these will be released in the coming weeks for $120 USD.
In other news, Nike’s new Air Kukini “Mighty Swooshers” has been uncovered.
